ABSTRACT
In this chapter, we analyze psychological phenomena within the framework of attractor configurations resulting from a self-organization process in a group of children playing in a room. The epistemological framework of Perrin’s 1909 analysis of the Brownian movement of small particles in suspension in a fluid as due to the incessant and irregular movements of the molecules in the medium is adopted as an heuristic tool to account for some of the common features in physical and psychological phenomena: indeterministic and deterministic interactions, disordered and ordered movements, coherent and noncoherent movements, and discontinuous and continuous transformations.
